I'm writing from my sister's apartment. This won't be posted until I'm home, but this is when I'm writing it to let you know what's going on. We folks here in Boston are experiencing a blizzard. Well, they're still calling it a Winter Storm with Blizzard Conditions. Either way, I'm way out here in Waltham, and my apartment and work are about thirty minutes away sans blizzard, so I'm thinking i'm a bit screwed as far as travel goes. The whole city is shutting down, but I'm near positive that this restaurant will not close even though not a person is leaving their homes tonight except for a few sad beer drinkers who like to go to bars when everyone else wants to go to bed. So, I have to leave my sister's about two hours before work, drive in the worst road conditions on the planet, just to get to the restaurant (which is in a resident area) and find absolutely NO parking. There is no T in my area and I refuse to trust a cabdriver on these roads over myself. I'll have to valet my car at my own damn work, which I'm not allowed to do, but I won't have any option, and I'll be at work until 1am while by car collects the two feet expected this evening. Then I get to clean off my car, drive back home, and be stuck in my apartment "alone" when I could've just stayed at my sister's and watched movies in her warm, cozy apartment the whole day. I hate work. I hate snow.

...I'm home now.

It's getting worse and worse outside. Joe, my sister's fiance, called where I work to ask them if they would remain open tonight. Whoever answered the phone replied, "Possibly, but you should call right before you come in to make sure." Basically, I work for the one place in the world that would stay open just for the $10 they'll make tonight, though they'll be losing money for having to pay everyone who comes in, and simply do not care that it's dangerous for their employees to be out in this shit. Great. I'm feeling extraordinarily resentful towards work tonight. I have a feeling I'm going to be a psychobitch all night. Well, if I have to go, I'm going really early to get food. I want a full dinner.

I didn't get my tape for tonight, but I talked to Dan and he said I'm actually in this one. "No way!" Exciting for me. Don't want to go through living with all that shit if I don't get anything to show for it, you know? So, I'll do a write-up later tonight on it when I get home...if I get home. I may be buried at work, literally.
